A good little spot

Quite limited options BUT it’s delicious! Their veggie dumplings are really good. We did find a hair in the cucumber salad and when we told them the lady in the kitchen started to argue that no one had this kind of hair… we just finished our dumplings and dipped lol

Pros: Good dumplings, Hot chili oil is A+, Short wait!

Cons: Little space , Not many options , Hair in cucumber salad…

Great for vegan/veggie dumplings!!

I love Hui Tou Xiang - great service, cheap prices, delicious food! The veggie dumplings and braised tofus kin are vegan. Both are awesome. There are other items that are vegetarian, such as the scallion pancakes. I haven't tried because I am vegan but I've heard they're good.

Pros: clean, friendly staff and good service, excellent food

Good authentic Chinese food

The food is great, but be aware that the vegetarian leek pancake isn't vegan as various Yelpers claim. It has egg in it, as do many of the noodle dishes. The vegetarian dumplings seem to be vegan. The language barrier and traditional lack of veganism in Chinese culture make it a struggle to parse out what is vegan versus vegetarian. The language barrier doesn't help. I asked a waitress if the vegetarian leek pancake had egg, she said no, I ordered it, and it visibly contained egg. When I asked a different waiter the next time, he confirmed it had egg.

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Authentic Chinese, Good prices

Cons: Language barriers, e.g. Confusion over egg, (Cont'd) ... as an ingredient , Hard to ID vegan vs vegetarian food

Where do you get the idea that there is a “traditional lack of veganism in Chinese culture”? Abstaining from meat goes back centuries in China. Tofu, seitan, tempeh - all these are East Asian in origin. Your comment seems based on an unfortunate stereotype.

I’m Chinese. What you are talking about is Buddhists who are VEGETARIAN. Not vegan. I think it’s you who is unfamiliar with Chinese culture. What is the Chinese word for vegan BTW?

I apologize. Obviously you know more about your culture than I do.

There is a common misconception among white vegans that plant-based meats are a Western invention, which is what I thought I was responding to, but I clearly put my foot in my mouth. Again, I apologize.

Chinese Mom & Pop Shop

MINIMUM $20 for credit card transaction.

This is one of those hole in the wall places that you would never consider visiting or trying out if you only looked at the shop from the outside. It’s relatively small, so there can be a wait during busy times. However, service here is quick and the food is very reasonably priced.

They have a variety of vegan (listed as vegetarian because Chinese people usually say vegetarian as vegan is not really in their vocabulary) dishes for you to try. I personally love their sesame noodles & vegetarian dumplings. Those are my go to everytime I visit this shop.

Their prices are reasonable so I do advise bringing cash when visiting this place because they have a $20 minimum in order to use credit card. Parking might be a little hard during rush hour but they do have their own lot.

Pros: Vegetarian / vegan friendly , Parking lot , Reasonably priced

Cons: $20 for credit card
